The
Southern California locations where the 1984Steve Martin/Lily Tomlin comedy, "All of Me",
was filmed.

4:06: Near the start of the movie, attorney 'Roger Cobb' (Steve Martin) stops his
car and listens to a blind man play the saxophone on a street corner.

It turns out the guy is his Roger's old friend, 'Tyrone' (Jason Bernard),
who tries to talk Roger into joining a jazz band full-time.

This scene was shot at theLos Angeles Music Center plaza, at 135 N Grand Ave,
in downtown Los Angeles. In the background, you can see the giant "Peace on Earth"
sculpture and fountains that stand in front of the center's Dorothy Chandler Pavilion.

But they didn't shoot from the Grand Avenue side. Instead, they shot this scene
on the west side of the center, at180 N. Hope Street, near the flag poles.
( In the photo above, the camera is looking east/southeast. )

6:16: We then see the Cutwater Estate - the home of 'Edwina Cutwater' (Lily Tomlin)a wealthy woman who has been plagued throughout her life with ill health.

But 'Edwina' has a plan. On her deathbed, she plans to use her 'spiritual advisor'
(a guru called 'Prahka Lasa') to move her soul into the young, healthy body
of 'Terry', the daughter of her stable keeper.

The "Cutwater Estate" is actually none other than Greystone Mansion,
at 905 Loma Vista Drive, in Beverly Hills.

A favorite of location managers, Greystone has appeared in dozens of
movies & TV shows, from "Star Trek 2" to "The Bodyguard".
On TV, it was Rory's school on "The Gilmore Girls".

The 1928 mansion was built by oil tycoon Edward Doheny,
and with 55 rooms, it was the largest home ever built in Beverly Hills.
It has hosted at least two Presidential visits (Barrack Obama & Billl Clinton).

And as an extra, its grounds are open free to the public - if you want to visit.

19:17: 'Roger' (Steve) walks into the front doors of his place of work,
the "Schuyler & Mifflin, Law Offices", where he meets up with
Edwina Cutwate, who is having her final legal papers drawn up,
while Prahka Lasa waits to catch her soul in a bowl when she passes.

23:58: As 'Roger' leaves the same building, he is struck by the falling bowl,
which was accidentally knocked out the window by Prahka Lasa during the
ritual that was supposed to move Edwina's soul from her dying body
to Terry's youthful body.

During that ritual, Edwina's soul was temporarily moved to the brass bowl,
and when it ends up striking 'Roger', he winds up sharing his body with
the spirit of Edwina Cutwater - much to the displeasure of both parties.

Roger can now only control the right side of his body, while Edwina can
only control the left side... which leads to struggle & confusion.

This is actually the former Bank of America building, at 650 S. Spring Street,
in downtown Los Angeles (now called SB Lofts).

That sidewalk and entrance you see above is on
the east side of Spring street, just north of 6th Street.

(They also filmed inside the building, for the law office scenes.)

This handsome old building has been used for a lot of filming over the years,
from "Teen Wolf" to "The Wedding Singer", including "The Prestige",
"Spider-Man 2", "The Mask", "Ghost" and "L.A. Story".

40:45: During that jerky drive, when Roger pulls over to talk to his blind friend (Tyrone),
(and introduces him to Edwina) they're back at the Music Center again,
on Hope Street, on the plaza's west side.

That huge "Peace on Earth" statue can be seen in the background again,
and you can also glimpse the City Hall tower to the east.)

So is the subsequent party (where Steve, Tyrone and the Prahka Lasa
sneak in, dressed as musicians). Plus the chased-by-police scene,
and the final 20 minutes of the movie, both inside & outside the mansion.
